I-485 required listing all citizenships. I can assure you of that as I was a dual citizen at the time (now have three citizenships). I also applied for LPR 6 years ago.... I'd consult with lawyer. This can be interpreted as misrepresentation, especially since you didn't list sanctioned country.

Always follow official instructions by USCIS. UCIS (never used it) and AI give incorrect information.

1) I wouldn't recommend working with paralegals. They often don't know what they're doing. Either learn everything yourself or hire a proper lawyer 2) Yes, scanned copy is OK, as long as it was signed by actual pen, not digitally.

In short no, submitting both I-131 and I-765 doesn't make any process go any faster. However, if you plan getting work permit I-765 or Advance Parole I-131, then yes, applying sooner get your those documents sooner (hopefully).

Anything from few weeks to over 2 years. 80% of cases are completed within 24.5 months for initial issuance or replacement 80% of cases are completed within 13 months for 10 GC renewals https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ But again, based on your complex immigration history, maybe you won't be able to renew GC? Have you consulted a lawyer before poking bear with a stick by filing new cases?

So how do K-1s marry within 90 days of arriving? A lot of them don't have SSN at time of filing I-485. Oh, I see, "who has one". I still don't recall providing SSN, but I it's been a while, so might have forgotten...

Yes, it would be easier to travel with US citizen husband. If officials ask who she's travelling with, she can say with my husband. Travelling alone only a week after landing in the US may raise suspicion of some officers, e.g. how come she came to the US to unite with husband and only a week later going somewhere on her own. Some folks commit such immigration fraud, e.g. once foreign spouse enters the US, they go separate ways and divorce. This is why she may get flagged, as a very fresh LPR. Or she maybe totally fine travelling alone. It's hard to predict, but more scrutiny is in place for sure.

Here's all statuses from my history: 1) We received your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, and sent you a receipt notice. 2) We are actively reviewing your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization. Our records showed nothing is outstanding at this time. 3) We scheduled an interview for your Form N-400 Application for Naturalization 4) Your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, was placed in line for oath ceremony scheduling. 5) We recommended that your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, be approved. Your case was submitted for quality review. 6) We scheduled you for an oath ceremony for your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization. 7) Certificate Of Naturalization Was Issued Statuses 1 and 2 were updated on the day I filed. Status 3 came few months later. Statuses 4, 5, 6 and 7 changed on the day of my interview which was the same day when I naturalized.

You get status update and new document in your account, which is a copy of letter they send you by mail.

Yes she can, as long as her passport is valid. The passport also contains immigrant visa which proves her status as LPR for 1 year. Of course, given higher scrutiny nowadays, she may be pulled aside to prove her legal status or explain where she's going etc. Are you travelling together? If not, this can raise a bit of suspicion.

There's official website with posted phone numbers and addresses https://www.ssa.gov/locator/ The risk of using Generative AI is hallucinations, e.g. it doesn't guarantee accuracy of information, it can be made up.

Visa is a "ticket" into the country. Once somebody enters the country, their visa doesn't matter as much. What matters is their status. Students, for example, can stay in the country well beyond their visa expiration, as long as they have a valid status. Once somebody files for adjustment of status, they can remain in the country until decision. It's good to maintain other status, when possible. Let's say, I-485 gets denied. If this happens, technically an immigrant can be deported, since they're going to be out of status. But if they're still in valid status like F-1 student, they'll be allowed to remain on that status.

Yes, this is normal. Two different petitions can have different interview dates, different service centers etc. They're independent from each other. I-130 takes 13-17 months to get approved, so you're within normal processing time.

If DS-3025 is completed and all vaccinations taken, I-693 is not needed.

Everything is a fair game when it comes to naturalization. Unless they have suspicion though, abuse won't be covered or covered lightly.

Congrats! Make sure to update SSA with your citizenship status

You'll probably fins more info here: https://usa.mfa.gov.ua/en

It's also possible email went to Junk / Spam folder 😃

Probably to do with people submitting W-2 which employers distribute and can password protect. IRS Tax Return Transcripts are typically not password protected, at least not in my experience.

Got it. Sometimes USCIS is sloppy with updating status. Some people see their status pending even after becoming a citizen

~ This question isn't related to US citizenship. Thread was moved to regional forum ~

And no other status in between? 'Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS' is a filler status which can be shown multiple times between other stages in process. I mean, it's unlikely you're going to learn anything new via API. You're in line for oath ceremony. Once field office has a slot, they'll send you a letter and upload document in your account

I think you're contradicting yourself? Surely case status must have updated, since you applied. Is it still showing: "We received your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, and sent you a receipt notice." despite you going to interview?

Somehow I thought this was a N-400 case 😃

The good thing is, once you become a citizen you no longer need to worry about updating address with USCIS (AR-11, I-865) and worrying about case transfer.
